What is DIGIE?
The Digital Information Gateway in El Paso (DIGIE) is an interactive Digital Wall and community archive that was created as part of the 2012 Quality of Life Bond Program. Displayed across five touch-sensitive screens that total 35 feet in length, it is the first digital wall of its kind in the United States and one of five in the world!
DIGIE is a vast collection of images and videos exploring El Paso’s past and present. There are over 17,000 community uploads available to view on DIGIE and the Museum of History is not the only place to access it! DIGIE offers a cross-media experience where users can browse and co-curate content within the digital archive.
Mini-DIGIE
A smaller version of the Digital Wall is also available. Mini-DIGIE is a portable, single-screen component of DIGIE that can be hosted at your site, free of charge. Host sites include classrooms, libraries, and other community centers. For more information, email: [email protected]
